Topic: 30AC Pegwarmers? (Read 33972 times)

I totally agree with Jesse and Paul on the wave 1 warmers-especially in Jesse's order too. As far as the Target 66 packs go, the most I see is the Palps/Shock Commander set. Oddly enough, the least I see of those is both types of 501 packs..Vader or Annakin types. I thought the worst looking trooper- the Kashyyk one with Yoda- I see few of as well.

I stopped at Wal-mart in Madison, WI. this morning and arranged the pegs. Wasn't too hard...5-Obi"s and 6 R2-D2. No sign of Wave 2. With 11 figures still on the pegs it may be awhile before they hang more.

Yesterday, I saw a lot of Gunner Hans and Ceremony Lukes at Target and there seemed to be quite a few Wave 3 Vaders but not too many. I wont call any of these three pegwarmers yet because this was the frst time I saw any of these figures! Mace Windu, though, is starting to seem like he'll be an annoyance in the future.

Wave 2 is non-existant, the lack of Wave 3 is not surprising... We're still waiting on the 30AC deluge of '07, and it's friggin' June.

Oh I'm seeing wave two just fine, but none of the army builders. Okay a scant Death Star trooper here and there, but rarely a Rebel Honor Guard. Lukes and Han are abundant. Still seeing a bit of wave one on the pegs, but again, not much for the army builders. Not too many Airborne troopers, and hardly any Galactic Marines.

Thankfully there really is only the one AB in wv3, the Stormtrooper. But you just KNOW he's going to be impossible to find. Thankfully though, all the ones I mentioned that are HTF now are going to get easier to find, as they are being packed in later cases along with the new waves.

Really? Can you help me out with the Rebel Honor Guard then? (Ask Jesse about me if you need to, I've known him for awhile on our local boards-that crashed about a month ago.) In fact he and I have a pending deal for next weekend.

Suffice to say I can be trusted. I'm a mod on another collecting site. So I won't stake my rep on making a bad deal.

Although I still see some of the Wave 1 warmers from time to time, the majority of the pegwarmers here now are Wave 2 Han, Luke, and Biggs. Wal-Mart still hasn't stocked a single TAC figure (aside from the album), TRU now has tons of Wave 2 on the pegs (mainly the three mentioned), and Target is much the same. I occasionally see a Rebel Honor Guard, and I actually saw 8 Fetts at one point at TRU (gone the next day). Other than that, its pretty much been Han, Luke, and Pilot Biggs warming the pegs - in that order (most to least).

The figures in the last category will be moving into the 2nd category in 2 weeks time, except R2 and SBD.

Also I'm seeing a lot of the Appo wave, including Appo himself and the Elite Corps clone. Here we are in June and about 15 cases of the Saga stuff have been put out between 2 Targets, 2 Walmarts and a TRU in the past week.
